Thank you, Lady! They have been a joy to me! I told someone they make me feel so old sometimes and it seemed only yesterday that I held them in my arms! They both made good grades and attended different colleges. The little blonde is the one who married almost 2 years ago. We were so worried she wouldn’t finish school...but she did and was on the Dean’s list! Her hubby told me she kept her nose in a book all the time and when she graduated they were going on another honeymoon...LOL!

The olive skinned girl got that from her grandfather, my hubby! Beautiful skin! She is in Radiology and has her foot in the door at the hospital where she did her floor work during college! She will be part time and fill in to start with but thats really good. When you get your foot in, you’re likely to go full time at anytime. Right now she will keep her job at the Japanese Restaurant as her tips are outstanding.

Good afternoon, Jaycee.
I'm joining you in honoring our Military.
God Bless and Protect them.

TGIF .... I'll have a glass of white zin but please hold the mouse. :)

Hope your day was wonderful.

[JustAmy]

Are you getting the margaritas ready? :)

I’m on my way.

[jaycee]

What a darling graphic and frame! I will join you...no mouse in my drink, even though he’s so cute....LOL!

My son just called and I think we talked about 45 minutes. The races are in town this weekend and the roads are covered with traffic. Its good to stay in if you don’t have to go anywhere. Those races sure bring a lot of money into our city and I am glad we have it. We have two big races per year and a lot of things in between like drag racing, etc.

You have posted a lot of pretty graphics today, Amy!

[jaycee]

LOL! Look at his pretty knees!

Not bored at all; lovely photos.

I wrote to my son and asked him for a picture of his digs to share with my Freeper friends. Here is the pic, along with his reply:

"It's a little spartan I guess. Having a T.V., DVD player and a fridge has become part of the baseline normal equipment on most of the bigger bases. Guys buy them & then sell them dirt cheap to the guys who replace them, who turn around and do the same, so that by the time it gets to the fifth or sixth guy money no longer changes hands & you basically hand off the furniture with the keys to the room. That's why I have a steelers sticker on my fridge. Still gotta replace that. Maybe you could send a Green Bay one. Anyway, there it is- You can't see it, but I also have a vintage (looking) Gadsden & Culpepper "Don't Tread On Me" snake flag over my window."

Amy, they are ready -
Your name is on the pitcher
And the glasses are frozen.

Now hurry! Someone else
Is trying to STEAL the whole pitcher!

[Lady Jag]

LOL! Look at his pretty knees!

Funny you should mention it! His last name is Dimplinese!

[Lady Jag]

You are blessed. The best of success to your girls!

[JustAmy]

Thanks, Jaycee.

I’ve spent a little time with new graphics but have also posted several pre-used ones.

Some day, I will make several new ones before I need them. I’ll probably make Friday Graphics and tomorrow I will wish I had made some Saturday Graphics. LOL Always a day late.

Prayers on the way, and I will add her to the church prayer list if you PM with a name.

Good evening, Meg.

Can we plan a Support the Troops Rally there?
I would love to spend the day there.

Lovely graphic and message. Thank you.

Have a beautiful Friday evening.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Megs.

[JustAmy]

Good evening, LadyJ.
Thanks for the pretty Red Friday Graphic and the nice dance poem.

I can't do the crazy dance but I can do the chicken dance.
Will that do?

Have a lovely evening.

[JustAmy]

TY, Jaycee.

[JustAmy]

Jaycee, thank you for sharing the pitures of your beautiful granddaughters.

You have every right to be a VERY proud grandma.

Your flowers are wonderful and I love the little tin pitcher. It is so cute and looks so pretty with the flowers that you chose.

Thanks for sharing.

[JustAmy]

Great picture and comments, ML.

Thank you for sharing. Please thank him for his service as we honor our military on Red FRiday.
